REALLY slow network file transfer

Question

1530 XPS

Vista - 32bit

ok i was transfering through a 100Mbit network cable between my computer and my laptop at 9 mb/sec.

i recently formatted and now its transfering at 2-5 KB/sec on a 100Mbit network....

and transfering around 700kb/sec - 1 mb/sec through the wireless network.. which is still slow

i installed the network cable drivers yet its still soooo slow.... what can i do?

Are you connection the 2 computers together through the network cable directly? or through a router? If you use a router, have you checked the routers settings? Check all cables and ends to see if anything is broke/cracked?  Check computers nic settings ( you can set max speed usually in settings )  Antivirus running on either that may be scanning the files as they are being transferred?

The user is experiencing slow network file transfer speeds after formatting their computer. They were previously getting transfer speeds of 9 mb/sec but now it is only 2-5 KB/sec. They have installed network cable drivers but the issue persists. The user also mentions slow transfer speeds of 700kb/sec - 1 mb/sec through the wireless network. The suggested solution is that Norton 360 may be scanning files as they are being sent.

The post discusses a problem with slow network file transfer on a 1530 XPS laptop running Vista 32-bit. The user was previously able to transfer files at 9 MB/sec but after formatting, the transfer speed dropped to 2-5 KB/sec on a 100Mbit network cable. The user also mentions slow transfer speeds of 700 KB/sec - 1 MB/sec through the wireless network. The user has installed network cable drivers but the issue persists. The suggested solution is to turn off antivirus and firewall while transferring files and to scan the transferred files for infections. The user is also asked about the method of connecting the two computers when using the network cable.
